Subject: Panwapa (Sesame Street) materials available

Hello,

I work as a content specialist for Sesame Workshop in our department of Global Education.  We have numerous educational kits from a project called Panwapa that are geared towards children ages 4-7 to emobdy concepts like social inclusion, mutual respect and understanding, and global citizenry.  A number of these kits are in Arabic and I would like to know if anyone is interested in receiving some for use as teaching materials in their classroom? Below is a brief blurb about the project, and you can obtain more information from the website: http://www.panwapa.org.

Panwapa, created by the educational experts behind Sesame Street, is a multimedia, global
initiative that is designed to inspire and empower a new generation of children, ages four
to seven, to be responsible global citizens. Research based materials come in a range of media platforms, including online, video, and print. By using the project’s activities, which reinforce
educational objectives, you can guide children in building age-appropriate skills and knowledge. These
building blocks can help prepare kids to contribute to their communities—in ways that will have a positive and lasting impact, both locally and globally. As they learn and grow, children can become motivated, responsible global citizens.  

Please contact me at zainab.kabba at sesame.org if you would like copies of some of the materials.

Thank you.
